Mr Berlusconi, 74, who has been charged with having underage sex with a prostitute, accused the centre left of being smelly as tensions rose ahead of local elections this weekend.

During a final rally in the southern Italian city of Crotone, Berlusconi said: “The leaders of the Left don’t wash themselves much. When they go into the bathroom, and they don’t go often since they don’t wash much, they look in the mirror when they shave and surprise themselves.”
Mr Berlusconi has a reputation for disliking beards, seeing them as sign of left leaning political sympathies.
